God also
testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the
Holy Spirit distributed according to his will. Hebrews 2:4
Luck or
God's intervention
Is being in
the right place at the right time luck or divine intervention from God? A woman’s near miss with a train, is it a coincidence, that she survived
or something short of a miracle? People who witness unexplainable spectacular
incidents often question whether they were acts of God or a fluke?
I believe,
God is working daily all around us at home, work, and hospitals, he is forever performing significant
wonders directly in our lives for all to see. With the aide of Cyberspace and
cable television, these mediums are capable of broadcasting inexplicable
encounters; though heart warming a person either confirms or denies them as
miracles.
Real miracles today
Jesus
performed countless miracles; people were amazed all while questioned his
authenticity as being the Son of God or just a man with magical powers Acts 2:22.
This week,
while skimming various headlines, I ran across
two incidents, which could classify as wonders and signs from heaven
above. Take for example, Jordan Landon, a 9-year-old North Carolina girl who survives two days in car
wreckage despite the fact her father died. A person walking by saw the
car off the state highway and called 911. How about the Minnesota
State Trooper who happens to be following a car that careened into freezing
water. The trooper jumped in and was able to save Sophia Eversvik who had
a seizure. Were these occasions the presence of the Lord or people being in the
right place at the right time?
The
Israelites witnessed Moses parting the Red Sea
A hero for Christ
In life, we
all will travel great distances yet never know what we are going to come
across. Sure, God can and will perform miracles until the end of time,
and there will be countless individuals who will experience them first hand,
like Ali
Johnson, who thanks God almighty for enabling him to help
others, A hero striking
twice in two weeks! In lieu of
more miracles by God Almighty, society needs to believe in the miracle of
salvation of Jesus Christ. This miracle will be everlasting. Moreover,
despite the heartaches or struggles one may face this miracle of salvation can
endure all pain. It starts with acceptance of Jesus Christ as your savior
and the growth and development of walking in faith.
Learn to
make yourself available as a vessel, take time to recognize God’s hand in your
life you never know when it is your time to be or receive a miracle. In
addition, remember, miracles are not always grand in size, they can come in
small packages, like finding a twenty-dollar bill tucked away in a pair of
pants.
After accepting Christ as your savior in your life, remember
it is a life long journey. Make sure you find a good bible based church and
surround yourself with people who will nurture your growth. For you see,
though you are an adult you are now babes in Christ; so will you cannot not eat
steak right away
